  1. Paul Kearns on the Dangers of Extreme Anti-Israeli Sentiment and Media Censorship

    Paul Kearns on the Dangers of Extreme Anti-Israeli Sentiment and Media Censorship

    On today's podcast I chat once again with Paul Kearns, urban planner, author and journalist who has been living in Tel Aviv with his young family for the last 8 years. Paul has been bringing us the truth from within Israel throughout the Gaza war, including the story of censorship by the media there and the presentation of the genocide in a very sanitised way to the people of Israel. In bravely doing so, Paul has in many cases alienated himself from friends and family but his honesty has been much appreciated and his writing has been very welcome by Irish media. He is now increasingly concerned by some political rhetoric and what he is hearing from the Jewish community in Ireland. He believes that the horrors we have witnessed in Gaza has resulted in visceral antisemitism, which could be a real threat to this community and his own family should he ever decide to visit or even return to Ireland to live. When he wrote about this topic, the media outlets who were happy to take his earlier articles did not want to know. We spoke about this version of censorship, antisemitism, holocaust deniers, conspiracy theories and how a country can start to rebuild its reputation, which is in tatters.

    Lorcan Owens - Life at a Crossroads

    On today's podcast I chatted with Lorcan Owens as he is about to step onto a plane, back to Australia to pursue a different life to the one he has in Ireland. Lorcan is from a small town in Roscommon, he is a qualified primary school teacher but as he says himself he chose this profession initially as it was a "safe" choice. He chatted about living as a gay man, deciding when to come out, his huge interest in the Middle East and geo politics and his brief spell working in that industry, which he would love to get back to. Like all of us he is faced with choices in his life to pursue his happiness and I wonder what is next for him.

    Nerella Chauvin - Happiness is Waking Up Each Day

    On today's podcast I chatted with Occupational Therapist, Nerella Chauvin who lives just outside Budapest in Hungary with her family. This busy career professional who was running her own successful practice turned 50 last summer and suddenly her life was turned upside down. She lay on the bed with a cup of coffee and started checking some emails - when she woke after what felt like a nap, she had a concerned audience at the foot of her bed. She had a seizure and had just come around. Tests diagnosed that not only did she have Epilepsy but she also had a condition called Organic Amnestic Syndrome, which causes memory loss. This occupational therapist who had specialised in helping people with epilepsy was now suddenly the patient who could no longer work or drive and the simplest of life tasks carried many practical risks. While the doctors are still experimenting with drugs to stabilise her condition Nerella has had to learn how to live again and she does this through a new lens; "Happiness is Waking up" she says. Your health is everything, and we need to appreciate it Enjoy the show     Podcast Production by Greg Canty Greg's blog Greg on Twitter  Greg on LinkedIn Email Greg with feedback or suggested guests: greg@fuzion.ie

    Ellie - Communicating with Animals and the Spirit World

    On part two of a two part podcast I welcome back the very lovely Ellie, founder of Unbridling the Soul. Ellie tells us about the dog Max and what she had to do to help return him to normal having discovered what the problem was after talking to him. She chats about her ability to communicate with animals and the spirit world and how this is used in her work to heal people and animals. She speaks in detail about her range of services which are offered both in person and remotely and she urges all of us to be more curious about ourselves, to scratch that itch and discover what might be lurking deep inside us. Ellie helped our beloved dog Bert who very sadly passed away last October and broke our hearts.

  5. Ellie - Healing through Animals and Ghostbusting!

    Ellie - Healing through Animals and Ghostbusting!

    On today's podcast I have a very different conversation with Ellie the founder of Unbridling the Soul in West Cork. The very lovely Ellie provides a very unusual range of healing services both in person and remotely, but not via the Zoom or Microsoft Teams variety. I met with her at her beautiful home in idyllic West Cork at the foot of Mount Gabriel which she shares with her daughter and some horses that she uses as part of her work. Ellie chats about her early life and how this brought about an extremely strong connection to animals, which has continued to this day. As well as developing the ability to communicate with animals she also has the ability to see and communicate with the spirits that surround us. Following her curiosity and exploring these unusual gifts led her away from an early career as a chef to founding her own business that helps people and animals who may be in some distress. To better understand what she does she shares a very unusual story about a dog called Max and the spirits that were disturbed when the house where he lived was renovated. Enjoy the show...

    Adam Christing and the Language of Laughter

    A huge happy new year to all of my listeners. I thought the first podcast of the new year should at least bring a smile or two to your face! On today's podcast I had the pleasure of chatting with comedian, author and presenter Adam Christing about his latest book 'The Laughter Factor'. While we all love to laugh, what role does laughter have in the modern workplace? Adam chats about the importance of laughter in the workplace, some of the do's and don'ts and some tips and tricks you may use to introduce humour, even if it doesn't come so naturally to you. Adam says "you can bring your people together with humour and heart" Ebjoy the show...   Podcast Production by Greg Canty Greg's blog Greg on Twitter  Greg on LinkedIn Email Greg with feedback or suggested guests: greg@fuzion.ie

    Brendan Canty on Directing his first movie 'Christy', his first film documentary 'Gaeltra' and how he learnt his craft

    On today's podcast I chatted with my son Brendan Canty as we come to the end of what was an amazing year for him. The first movie that he co-wrote and directed, 'Christy' hit movie screens around the world winning awards and great acclaim and his first full feature documentary 'Gaeltra' has just premiered at the Cork International Film Festival and scooped the Best New Irish Feature Award. The future is looking very bright and from the outside looking in, it may look as though he enjoys instant success at every turn, but as we all know nothing happens like that. On the podcast Brendan chats about these successes, but more importantly he takes us through all the other stepping stone projects that came before these where he learned his craft, from the first school projects, music videos and commercial work. In any career you can't cheat the learning curve, but you need to seize the opportunities along the way when you can gain all of that lvaluable earning. He also chats about the perils about working in such an unpredictable industry and how to keep yourself sane in the process!
